I've been steadfastly ignoring The Gnome for some time now

Why is that Bryan?

but I don't seem to be able to shake him off.

We are a tenacious lot:-)

So, come on then. I am asking your advice as an organiser of a club with a very high standard of floosingers. What would you do with someone who was really quite bad and could not or would not improve? We have a couple and I really want to know what to do with them.

Thank you in anticipation
